Magali’s Helping Hands
Magali helps her parents on their farm. She gathers the hens’ eggs for her family to eat. She gives milk to the calves and water to the bunnies. Helping her family has taught her that service is a very important thing. Magali says, “We should always serve those around us.”
Another way Magali serves is by helping her grandma read the scriptures, especially the Book of Mormon. She is very happy to follow Jesus by helping others.
